Not all superheroes wear capes, some ride bicycles ~ Laurence Gross

Team 3G is a PMC cycling family with a mission to raise money in support of the Dana Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI). Our team name stands for Gregg Fradkin, a remarkable man who is courageously fighting stage 4 Lung Cancer. Cancer affects many, so we use the 3G’s in Gregg's name to symbolize our team name and honor not just one, but the thousands of patients who bravely face this challenging and often terminal cancer.

We will always deliver the lion’s share of funds raised to The Lowe Center for Thoracic oncology at the DFCI, but our objective has shifted as our team has grown. We now provide grants to many labs at the DFCI that impact team members and friends who have loved ones suffering with cancer or who have lost loved ones to this insidious disease.

In five years short years, Team 3G has blanketed over $2.33 million dollars in grants to lung, brain, lymphoma, ovarian, gastro and melanoma studies & clinical trials. In 2025, we will continue to support the Boston area SPORE program by delivering 24-month grants to young investigators via Dr. David Barbie, Director of the Lowe Center for Thoracic Oncology. As a team, we are incredibly excited to be involved in such cutting edge research. We will also continue to suport Dr. Haq and his team as they make progress in his uveal melanoma lab, along with Dr. Reardon's team with their goal in finding better treatment for glioblastoma patients.

Our fundraising goal is always lofty. Now, with reduced NIH funds going into research, we desperately want to help the oncologists, radiologists and surgeons at the DFCI do what they do best - provide optimal therapeutics and enhanced treatment options to patients in search of lifesaving and cutting-edge care. Our doctors are amazing and our donors incredibly generous. One hundred percent of your donated dollars support cancer research and 0% of your dollars support the cost of running the charity. INCREDIBLE!

If you would like to learn more about how your donation will help the DFCI turn the tide in cancer research, please see the links below and meet the doctors and researchers we support. If you would like to ride with Team 3G, we welcome you to join us!

With gratitude,

Amy Fradkin and Robert Sheiffer - Team 3G, Co-Captains
